The Pelicans have released Dominique Daniels Jr. and Solomon Washington .
The New Orleans Pelicans waived point guard Dominique Daniels Jr. and center Solomon Washington, who had signed Exhibit contracts 10 days earlier.[1] However, the waiver does not end their relationship with the franchise: both are expected to play for G League affiliate Laketown Squadron, where they can receive bonuses and be reused if vacancies arise due to injuries or market movements throughout the season.[2]

What happened?
The New Orleans Pelicans cut this week off point guard Dominique Daniels Jr. and center Solomon Washington, both of whom had signed Exhibit 10 contracts with the Louisiana team a few days earlier in the same week they were waived.
How Exhibit 10 works and why the dispensary is not the end of the line
The Exhibit 10 contract is a low-value training agreement that allows clubs to bring edge players into the preseason without compromising the final roster.
The important detail: when the player is dismissed and then signs with an affiliate team in the G League, he can receive a bonus if he stays at the affiliate long enough. It's just the expected path for Daniels and Washington.
The next step, Laketown Squadron.
The two are expected to play the upcoming G League season for Laketown Squadron, an affiliate of the Pelicans. In practice, the waiver works more like a relocation than a closed door athletes remain within the franchise's line-of-sight and can be repurposed should injury or market movement vacancies arise throughout the season.
Where does that leave the players?
The current phase is one of waiting and proving their worth in the G League, a competition that has established itself as the main showcase for players trying to make it back or debut in the NBA.
